Hi Guys,

Having set the $Email::Valid::Response timeout parameter, when it fails the programme crashes, together with the calling app, like this: 

query timed out at /usr/local/share/perl/5.18.2/Email/Valid.pm line 14
+7.
    Email::Valid::_net_dns_query('Email::Valid', 'sca-uk.com') called

What can I do to make it return an error code rather than just crashing?
